NSD 4.1.18 released
Thu, 30 Nov 2017
This release has features for saving memory and faster notification.
With --enable-packed, 33% memory savings could be had, or something
along that size. Notification of secondary servers happens in parallel,
and has faster timeouts. More sockets are used for zone transfers.
This speeds up communication with a larger set of servers. Additionally
a bug is fixed for dual-loaded parent-and-child zone configured at the
same time, when one of the zones has not loaded properly. NSD project page.

A Hybrid System for Automatic Exchanges of Routing Information
Fri, 2 December 2016
The exchange of routing information for BGP configurations is a critical functionality that help autonomous systems communicate with each other in an efficient and robust way. In this work, we propose a hybrid system for automatic exchange of routing information. It addresses security and benefits from using a hybrid model for achieving policy routing information exchange in an efficient way.

BGP Route Leaks Analysis
Fri, 6 Mar 2015
A route leak is a violation of the policies between the networks involved. In this project, we obtain routing information from differecent sources and make inferences to detect possible route leaks. These potential route leaks have been further investigated on their duration, the type of violation, and the type and origin of network that caused the leak-detection.

BGP Evolution Analysis
Thu, 31 Jul 2014
The Internet has been growing rapidly for many years. A logical consequence of the growth trend is the increase in effort to discover reachability and routing information of all the networks. The project investigates the different components which together form the actual update message signal and tries to find a reason behind the growth factor.

Measuring the Deployment of DNSSEC over the Internet
Thu, 2 Jul 2014
The deployment of DNSSEC is measured with the RIPE Atlas infrastructure. The results provide new insight on the distribution of DNSSEC support among resolvers, and notably show that around 90% of resolvers are DNSSEC-aware, and about 30% validate answers.
